(ME IS LOYAL
Despite the efforts to make It ap
pear that H. M. Cake la not loyally
favoring Statement No. 1. and making
his campaign on that Issue, the re
publican nominee for United States
senator. H. M. Cake, stands as square
ly on statement No. 1 today as ha did
when he opened his campaign In the
republican primaries, says a Port
land paper. Repeated attempts have
Kn mnri to plnuit the Issue, arid the
Intimation has been sent out that Mr.
Cake Is not as firm a believer In the
doctrine as he originally announced
himself.
These Intimations and attacks were
boldly met today by Mr. Cake In an
Interview to the Telegram. In this
Mr. Cake does not equivocate and as
sures the voters of the state that In no
respect has his view, changed, and
that he Is advocating statement No, 1
today as he has for a long period.
Last summer, when Mr. Cake was
discussed as a possible nominee for
senator, he said that If he entered the
race It would be on a statement No. 1
platform, and he Is still carrying out
this plan.
Mr. Cake declares that Governor
Chamberlain waited until after the
primaries when he saw that he might
profit by the advocacy of the state'
mrpt, and now comes into tha open
and urges the statement and the elec
tion of democrats to the legislature.
Regarding the counties where anti
statement men have been nominated
for the legislature, Mr. Cake will not
Interfere. He contends that the peo
ple have selected their candidates and
he refuses to follow the advice of
Chamberlain, that he, Cake, antagon
ize the nominees who have been se
lected by the people. Chamberlain l
advocating the election of independ
ents who are running against anti
statement republicans and Caks ask3
whether he or Cahmberlaln Is abiding
by the wish of the people,

At Venice, Cal., recently the Hon
Taft wasborn In the Sells-Floto clr
cus. The mother Hon, "Virginia,"
three days ago, took suddenly 111. She
la In the wild animal hospital and the
chnaces of her recovery are slim. Dur
ing these few days the baby lion would
not take nourishment. The little fel
low being named Taft for Hon. W. H.
Taft, secretary of war and presiden
tial candidate, la valuable piece of
show property, and It wouldn't pay to
lose him. The question of nourish
ment has been solved by Mrs. James
Hyatt, from near ML Auburn, Ind.
Her contract with Sells-Floto Is to
nurse the baby Hon Taft, and save his
life. That Taft enjoys his new out
of fare was shown when he took his
first warm meal since his mother was
stricken 111. Those visiting the men

see this wonderful and ' remarkable
scene. Mrs. Hyatt is small tnstarture,

children and a lover of animals.
Her case recalls the ancient story
of the suckling of Romulus and Re
